Matt is a US Military Combat veteran, PTSD survivor, and Founder Matt has been on the front lines of drug policy advocacy and reform in regards to plant medicine and using unorthodox treatment methods to treat PTSD and trauma since 2013. Matt served in the hundredandfirst Airborne Division in Afghanistan where an accident sent him home injured, traumatized and suffering from crippling PTSD. Matt is the founder of Veterans for Natural rights. An organization that aims to build community, support, and resources for veterans that are suffering with PTSD and trauma. He was also previously the president of the weed for warriors project in Colorado and host of the 1620 show on the veterans channel. He is one of the people featured in the documentary we're going to be talking about tonight called “From shock to Awe”.
This is a very special episode of Nod Squad in which Unc has special guest Matt Kahl on the podcast to talk about his participation & contribution to the award winning documentary film "From Shock to Awe." Matt served in the 101st Airborne Division from 2007-2011. During his time in the military & deployment to Afghanistan, Matt witnessed so much that it changed him in ways most of us could never possibly fathom. Upon his return home Matt was thrown into an extremely dangerous combination of prescription drugs which included opioid pain killers, benzodiazepines & SSRI's by his doctors in attempts to treat the physical, mental & emotional trauma's that deployment had left him. Desperately seeking for a way out Matt fortunately found a Spiritual Retreat Center that used Ayahuasca therapy. Over the coarse of a weekend Matt had undergone 4 ceremonies, taking the powerful psychedelic and experiencing such a powerful experience that after it was done he was left feeling relief from the anxiety, rage and agony that his experiences with deployment had left buried within himself. Matt's story is incredibly heartwarming & inspiring; one that we have all been touched by. "From Shock to Awe," is available to stream on through Amazon, iTunes, Google Play & Vimeo.

Macey Tomlin and Matt Kahl have been advocates for plant medicine for some time. For years, Americans have turned to the pharmaceutical companies for a solution to their unhappiness. The Journal of the American Medical Association states the percentage of Americans taking antidepressants nearly doubled between 1999 and 2012.Macey has been an advocate for the therapeutic properties of psychedelics for six years.After her first Ayahuasca ceremony, she became interested in the growing rate of depression and anxiety in western cultures and believes scientific studies will move people will away from big Pharma. Matt comes by way of education meeting reality. Matt's concentration in college was Behavioral Neuroscience, Psychopharmacology of the indole alkylamine hallucinogenics and eCB receptor chemistry. Discovered sacred medicinal plants and studied academically and experientially. Cannabis, mushrooms, cacti, and tropical shrubs. Matt joined the Army and was a member of the "Band of Brothers". His service time resulted in him attempting suicide, injured in battle, feeling that he abandoned his combat brothers, and now suffering from PTSD. The standard military treatment regimen put Matt into a cage with bars made of pills and pharmaceutical regimens, and his own house became his prison. Macy lost a close family member to suicide at the age of 12 because of the antidepressant Paxil. We will discuss these issues and how plant medicine of all types create avenues of physical and mental health without the damaging side effects we are forced to use by government. Macey plans to build a wellness center in Acapulco that centers around the use of Ayahuasca and possibly MDMA therapy as well. Matt works with Veterans for Natural Rights, appeared on Viceland, NBC Dateline, and CBS This Morning. He devotes his life to this as a way to help his brothers and sisters suffering from PTSD, Please join us.
